  5. Add bananas and extract/extracts and mix well
  6. Whip egg whites until stiff peaks form.
  7. Fold ½ of whipped egg whites into wet mixture.
  8. Combine dry ingredients in a separate bowl.
  9. Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix until blended.
  10. Add remaining ½ whipped egg whites and fold in.
